I hope everyone has had a good 2010 and is looking forward to 2011! The City is moving in the right direction and sales tax revenues have hit a new high. Our staff has done an excellent job of curtailing expenses and helping the Council keep City taxes low!
I am looking forward to continuing this momentum in 2011. Please have a GREAT New Years and be careful in your celebrations, I want to see all of you next year.
Thanks again for looking! If you want an email when the blog goes out, simply send me a note at lakeway@bain.us - that will also work if you want off the email list!
